Description frithjof 2021-03-26 19:16:52 UTC 
Description:
Adding line numbers in a writer document via the Extras->Line numbering option. Choosing options to number every fifth line, not to start on each page, NOT TO INCLUDE FOOTERS... And then it does insert a line number at each fifth line of the actual text, but also a separate line number in front of each fifth footer (!?). Footers should bee considered at all with these configs. And it is like a second numbering completely independent form the line numbering of the text body.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open menu Extras
2. Choose line numbering
3. in the pop-up select none of the options at the right side of dialog
4. accept and close pop-up

Actual Results:
footers get own line numbering independent from and in addition to the line numbering of the text body

Expected Results:
footers should either not be considered at all with these configurations, or be included in the line count of the text body, but surely not have their own independent numbering

I don't reproduce. Are you sure that is not another page number? 
Do you reproduce with multiple documents? 
Please attach minimal sample ODT, remove personal info (all chars with x).

I reproduce in 7.2+ with attached document like this:
If line numbering is set to X lines, without header and footer, number X appears every X pages in footer (test with 5 and 3). 

No repro with new document. Even in this one, delete and reapply footer corrects this. So I confirm as minor. 
We don't know how this appeared (just that ODT was last edited with LO 7.0.5) - that would be valuable.
This ODT behaves similarly all the way from OO, so inherited.

I can confirm, that the missbehaviour disappears once deleting and reincerting the footer.

With the original document the error remains, though.
